# Toàn bộ câu chuyện không có thật, chỉ là sự tưởng tượng. # Truyện không cổ xúy cho bất kỳ hành vi bạo lực nào.

Không phải là một câu chuyện đầy kịch tính, chỉ là một hành trình lặng lẽ bên nhau. Nơi sự chân thành lên tiếng qua từng khoảnh khắc bình thường nhất.

một cuộc rượt đuổi không điểm dừng. nơi yêu và hận giẫm chân lên cùng một vết nứt. khi lòng tin là chiếc mặt nạ, ai rồi cũng sẽ bị lột trần.

Có hay không, chúng ta là định mệnh.

"Between Heartbeats" is the story of a troublemaker with a fragile heart and the ice queen melted by love. Woo Seulgi is the one the school hallways are afraid of. Yoo Jaeyi is the president with eyes of ice and a voice made of steel. They come from different worlds, but when Seulgi's life begins to slip between heartbeats, it's Jaeyi who stays. Too late for "later", too early for goodbye. This is a story about how love blooms where no one expects it - between pain, fear, fistfights, silence... and last chances.

Prologue In a world still spinning from the aftermath of a celestial anomaly-the Arcane Comet-some teenagers began to change. Not all, just a few. Chosen by fate or cursed by chance, they awoke to find themselves holding pieces of the impossible. Powers. Secrets. A ticking clock inside their skin. Yoo Jaeyi was one of them. A sharp-tongued university student with a penchant for trouble and a gift no one was supposed to have-she could bend others to her will, if only for a short while. A flicker of control. A taste of power. And like anyone armed with something dangerous, she tried to use it to her advantage. Cheat sheets. Party invites. A shortcut through life. But freedom has a price. And someone was watching. Woo Seulgi saw through her. A ghost in plain sight, Seulgi walked the world invisible to everyone-everyone except Jaeyi. Their encounter wasn't a coincidence. It was the beginning. Together, they were dragged into the underbelly of the extraordinary: Chaehwa University-a hidden institution posing as an elite school, masking its true purpose. It trained the gifted. Protected them. Controlled them. And sometimes, used them. This story is not about heroes. It is about the ones who didn't ask for this. It is about Yoo Jaeyi and Woo Seulgi-two girls trying to outrun fate, trying to protect others like them, and trying, just maybe, to save each other. Welcome to Arcane.

Titled: Ace of my Heart English version | Enemies to Lovers | Fanfictional | Rom-Com Yoo Jaeyi is the definition of perfection, top achiever, straight-A student, and the campus queen with a cold, untouchable aura. Everyone either envies her or fears her, especially those who dare to slack off in group projects. Woo Seulgi, on the other hand, is the golden girl of the university's baseball team, confident, charming, and effortlessly athletic. She's smart enough to pass, but struggles with a few subjects, especially the one taught by her least favorite professor: Jaeyi's favorite. Their worlds collide when a class presentation goes hilariously wrong, putting them on each other's bad side. But fate has other plans. Forced to work together for academic survival, Jaeyi and Seulgi must navigate rivalry, pride, and unexpected kilig moments. Can two girls who seem to have nothing in common find common ground... or even love? Dont forget to vote for my story, Thank you so muchhh!!

Jaeyi is the CEO of a well-know agency. Cold, smart and manipulative, she succeed to prove her father her worth. She got married, had a daughter and a successful career, everything that Taejoon planned for her worked. Expect at two points. Her divorce. Her signing a contract with her daughter's favorite actress, Woo Seulgi.

If someone had told Seulgi three months ago that she'd end up sharing a house with her mother's new fiancé and his daughter, she would've laughed. Or screamed. Or both. Now? Well-she's still screaming. But more internally. Mostly. "I swear to God, if you touch my skincare again, Jaeyi-" "Relax! I was just borrowing your toner. And serum. And... maybe the snail essence. Your pores look rich, I'm trying to invest." Seulgi clenched her jaw, gripping the bathroom doorframe like it personally betrayed her. "Your investment plan is going to end in hospital bills." Living under the same roof as Jaeyi was like signing up for emotional whiplash. One moment she was laughing at Jaeyi doing a ridiculous dance in the kitchen with a burnt pancake on her head; the next, she was staring too long when Jaeyi came home in a sundress that shouldn't be legal. It wasn't fair. It wasn't fair. Because Jaeyi wasn't just annoying. Or pretty. Or funny in a way that made Seulgi want to punch a pillow. Jaeyi was her. The kind of chaos Seulgi never asked for but somehow couldn't stop orbiting around. "You're staring again," Jaeyi teased one evening, perched on the kitchen counter, eating grapes like a Greek goddess with no regard for personal space. "No, I'm regretting my life choices," Seulgi deadpanned, turning away, ears turning traitorously red. Jaeyi tilted her head. "Sure you are. Just like how you 'regretted' sitting next to me during movie night. Or how you 'regretted' holding my hand during that thunderstorm." "That was for safety," Seulgi snapped, grabbing a water bottle just to have something to hold that wasn't Jaeyi's smug face. "Oh? So if another thunderstorm happens, you'll hold someone else's hand?" Silence.

"Đó không phải lần gặp đầu tiên của chúng ta sao?" "Không. Là từ rất lâu về trước."
